Il ,i,p he was fully determined to keep
u n,s cold and dark winter day-a

4 ioca Behind the humble hearse
.,n,is Cambremer walked with his bare
,,j and leaning upon the arm OF the
Sahul Courapicd'
The mourniul cortege, in its passage
nm fine morgne to the church, had met
,ir with the ordinary notice OF the
& ,,.ors.by. and the busy crowd gave but
Indifferent glance at the Unattended
4 En The men in black performed
& IF accustomed task with the methodi-
Indifference usual in undertaker's
4 nstants, and the body was carried to
8 middle Of the church. The religious
f,nuations contrasted with the sim
8tily Of the funeral procession, for the
I'm, Of the building were hung with
A ak. and the large altar was made

lsp PRAYING and knelt upon II bench
In the coffin. The chevaier looked
fnminy towards them, and was much
howell at the sight OF the child Of the
Unfortunate victim seated between her
EOprOtectresse5. She was looking with
s.Oishment mt the preparations for the
Arice, and it was easy to see that she
+ not understand what was going on
Mound her. Nine. Mongis had not the
.grge TO tell her, but she had not ven
( rrl to keep her away from the Gene
[ET. Her mother looks down upon
rom above" thought the pious
oman, and this belief soltened her grief.
. Paul Vernier came in ut the moment
ren the funeral service began. Cam
Eemer had written to him the day before
n ask him to come to Saint Sulpice, and
II Young man had FASTENED to obey his
[eneactOr, but not without having had
tme difficulty in obtaining permission
EOm NJ. Bousenna to absent himself.
[he cheyalier, who had not yet had time
i do 50, had as yet told him nothing as

Paul silently pressed Cambremer's
band and placed himself behind him.
The presence Of Marthe, whom he imme-
dately recognized, soon engrossed al his
|alentiOn, but he endeavored in VAIN to
|eItch the young girls eye. Mile. Mon
~ with her head upon her hand, was
entirely absorbed in the icrvent prayer
'Fhich she was offering to heaven for
baa, her dear little sister. The sound
n the organ filled the immense build
chs with its sad harmony, and the mourn
4 n chants OF the Catholic ceremony filed
siIegoomy church with their intermittent
'leEnres. When the terrible words OF
& lle Dies irt burst forth with their funeral
'faeII, the few who were present bent
beneath the thoughts OF eternity which
Is the strongest to bow down, and the
|l0ltcSt to humble themselves.
